input_form

Welcome to input_form!

Input_form was designed to ease the task of developing user interfaces.
To do so, it tries to level out the distinctions of the used
libraries and provide a uniform usage model and to provide build in functionality for the common taks
(handling of numeric data, i18n support, binding, validation and so on). Since this framework relies on the GUI frameworks the
Java environment provides, you need the latest JRuby version to use this framework.

Installing

After checking out the sources from github, change to the input_form directory and run

jruby examples/main.rb

to see some usage examples.

To install input_form as a gem run

rake install

inside the input_form directory.

I recommend to take a quick look at the MigLayout documentation
before diving deeper into the input_form examples.

Instead of 'rake install' you can use the gem from the prebuild directory and
run

gem install input_form-0.3.8.gem

Example

The following example shows a simple form that uses some of the functionality provided by input_form:
